"Drinking the Kool-Aid" is a metaphor commonly used in the United States and Canada that refers to a person or group's unquestioning belief, argument, or philosophy without critical examination. The phrase typically carries a negative connotation when applied to an individual or group. The basis of the term is a reference to the November 1978 Rev. Jim Jones Jonestown Massacre,[1][2] where members of the Peoples Temple were said to have committed suicide by drinking the Kool-Aid drink laced with cyanide.[3][4]
Belief. Faith. Unquestioning loyalty to one's own ideas. Fanaticim?
Altering Reality. Transforming one's own ideas and perceptions. Passing the Test?
A phrase that can be used in two completely opposite ways.
